Investments Help Customers Modernize Cloud Data
Analytics with Vantage on Azure
Teradata (NYSE: TDC), the connected multi-cloud data platform
company, today announced its continued innovation and commitment to
the cloud with new capabilities for Vantage on Microsoft Azure.
Teradata Vantage is the leading enterprise multi-cloud data
analytics software platform, enabling deep analytics that drive
meaningful, industry-specific business outcomes for customers.
Delivered as-a-service – complete with Teradata software and
services, and coupled with Azure compute and storage resources as
well as native services – Vantage on Azure enables companies to
start small and elastically scale compute and storage
independently, and only when needed. Pricing model flexibility
gives customers the choice of how they apply resources to different
sized data workloads.
As the largest retail toy store chain in the Netherlands,
long-time Teradata customer Intertoys leverages first- and
third-party data to help uncover insights into demand, trends, and
seasonality. After deciding to modernize their data analytics
platform by moving to the cloud, Intertoys selected Microsoft Azure
as their preferred cloud service provider and Teradata Vantage as
their cloud data analytics platform to drive their next wave of
deep customer insight and tailored shopping experiences.
“We did testing with multiple cloud vendors, but Teradata is the
best-in-class when performing complex queries and handling data
volume,” said Robin Tichler, IT Manager, Intertoys, B.V. “We can
easily scale up and down. Teradata is also rated at the top by
leading analyst firms in terms of scaling to handle large data
volumes, query response times, concurrency, and query
complexity.”
Now, retail companies like Intertoys, as well as those across
the financial services, public sector, manufacturing,
transportation, healthcare and life sciences industries, and more
can use the enhancements announced today for Vantage on Azure:
Easier Modernization of Cloud Data Analytics
Infrastructure

option enabling customers to draw down of 100% of total contract
value from their Azure spending commitments.
- Support for zero downtime compute scaling with Elastic
Performance on Demand (EPOD).

including Azure Blob and Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) Gen2.

restore – reduces downtime from hours to seconds.
Enhanced Security

configuration option that enables customers to protect their data
in the cloud.
- Option to incorporate security partner software from Imperva
and Protegrity, providing customers with industry-leading options
for data encryption.

Vantage, Viewpoint, and QueryGrid software in a secure network

Innovative New Functionality

Analytics Library.
- New deployments will provide 40% more computational performance
than previous configurations, enabling customers to execute more

any industry vertical can use Vantage to enable rapid outcomes
leveraging their favorite Azure capabilities,” said Barry Russell,
